EXCIDEUIL, Aquitaine, Address available on request

A country house to be renovated with two barns and one hectare of grounds, nestled in the Périgord Vert region, near the village of Excideuil. The house was built on a hillside, next to a hamlet that spreads along the hill and over the plateau. At ground level, the property's rear side is edged with a public track that leads to a craftsman's barn before running along the river. On the other side of the track, a triangular plot of land offers space and light in front of the entrance, ensuring privacy from the house opposite it. Further up the track is a second barn, surrounded by two gardens. It looks over a raised terrace on one side of the house. Two old lime trees cast shade over this raised terrace, which forms an undisturbed sanctuary as it is largely enclosed by a protective ruin and a high stone wall against which an access staircase has been built from scratch. Several steps further down lies the garden level, made up of a vast terrace that overlooks a sheep meadow. Its sweeping 180-degree view takes in the valley, the river and the village. A stone's throw away, on the plateau, a plot of orchard land that can be built upon is offered as an option. It covers around 1,300m².
